Once Sri Bhagavan was sitting on the Hill. It was a wet season and the area was marshy. Suddenly a frog came a pool ofwater nearby and hit His eyes. His eyes became red. The devotees were worried. They asked Sri Bhagavan: What happened?Can we bring some eye lotion? Sri Bhagavan replied smilingly: No. no, not required. The frog came and told me 'Good Morning'!That is all!

devotees were singing the "ramana sadguru" song, Bhagawan joined them in the singing. When the people asked why, he asked "Why not? After all, you are not singing about this body, but about the Ramana sadguru who is within all including this body"

Deepa ji,

It really touched my heart, just see how pure and innocent is our master. We generally come across many things but this is some thing, way beyond our imaginations.

Again see how the thinking differs, if it would have been us we would have abused the frog instantly and will be cursing the poor frog for the whole day when ever we look in the mirror till it becomes normal.

This is just one example why he is considered as ocean of compassion just like our bhola shankara!

Once Sri Bhagavan was staying in Pachiamman Temple, since there was water scarcity in the Hill. Kavyakanta Ganapati Muni,Viswanatha Swami and a few others were there. Sri Bhagavan was sitting with a group of monkeys and was telling themabout Atma Vichara. On seeing this, Viswanatha Swami came near and said: What Bhagavan! You are teaching Atma Vicharato monkeys. How can monkeys understand this?

Sri Bhagavan replied: I have also been teaching Atma Vichara to you all. How many of you have understood? So also with thesemonkeys. Some monkeys may understand and others may not, as in the case of you people!

On hearing this Kavyakanta Ganapati Muni roared with laughter so heavily as if his ribs would break! Viswantha Swami became speechless!
